February 01, 2018

Turning the Tides is excited to announce that we will be officially relaunching our Spark campaign on February 5th through February 9th! We still have $1,000 left to fundraise to reach our goal of $4,000 and we need your help! The donations we receive will be used to fund our fieldwork on UCLA’s research vessel, making them a vital contribution to our research.

We graciously ask the favor of also informing family, friends, and any interested individuals of our campaign and project. In addition, please do not hesitate to reach out to us through Facebook or email if you have people in mind that you feel our team should reach out to!

Thank you always for your continuous support and we look forward to keeping you updated with our progress on furthering research on ocean acidification.

Half Way There!

December 06, 2017

Because of your support, we are HALF WAY to our goal of $4,000!

With 8 days left in our fundraising campaign we are so excited to have reached the $2,000 mark. That being said, we still need your help! Over the next week please continue to spread word of our fundraising efforts; your help really makes a difference! With each donation that is made, we are that much closer to collecting the data necessary to slow down ocean acidification.

Thank you so much for your generous donation, let's work together and reach $4,000!
